Prominent Armenian film director of the 20th century, People's Artist of Armenia and Ukraine Sergey Parajanov would turn 85 today. On this occasion his relatives and art lovers visited the Komitas Pantheon to pay tribute to the memory of the great aesthete.
One of Parajanov's masterpieces is the film "The color of pomegranate" telling about Sayat Nova.
According to the Director of Parajanov's house-museum Zaven Sargsyan, his greatest value was that he was trying to have no controversies with his own conscience, say what he thinks and what he considers to be right. For many years he was prohibited for shooting films. Only in 1920 he was allowed to shoot the"Legend of the Surinam Tower" and "Ashugh Gharib".
During the last years of his life Parajanov was shooting the autobiographic film "Confession", which remained uncompleted and was later used for Michael Vardanov's documentary titled "Parajanov's last spring". Parajanov died of cancer in July 1990 in Yerevan. 2009 is a jubilee year for the great artist. |
